Thanks for your help. I typed in "exit" and that took me back to windows. I installed the game, but can't seem to be able to play it. I installed from a CD, but when I open "My Computer" and try to access the game after opening my CD icon, I can't start the game.

I just installed it and got it to run just fine. Click on your C drive - find the folder that says I-motion - click to open - click on folder that says Indark3 - find the icon that says AID3 and click - that starts the game. You can also send the shortcut to your desktop and start the game from there if you want.

I bought it on Ebay. It is from I-Motion and seems to be new. I did what you said, went into C and opened the I-Motion folder. When I click on the icon my monitor just clicks off and comes back on but no game starts

I am running WIN98SE and my video card is an NVIDIA GeForce4 MX 440 and sound is Master Riptide on my old PC. I have 2 PC's. The one I am using to communicate with you is my brand new one with WINDOWSXP. I have the game installed on the old one.

Another thing you could try is to make a desktop shortcut to the game executable. To do this, Right-click the desktop where there is no icon, Move the Cursor to where it says New, and then across to click on Shortcut. Browse to where the game executable is and highlight it. From what Syd said, it would be inside the Indark3 folder that's inside the I-Motion folder.Click Open, then Next and Next and Finish.

If it's a DOS-type shortcut, right-click on it and choose Properties. Click the Program tab, then the Advanced button.Put a check where it says "Prevent MS-DOS-based Programs from detecting Windows" and OK out of it.Then see if it works any better.

I remember someone else had problems with a Riptide sound card when they tried to play DOS games. It doesn't seem to have very good DOS sound emulation.
